Tying Instructions

Instructions Note: 
This fly is a hybrid of Al's Lace Pupa from FAOL and John Thomas's Cat Caddis.
Both fine flies.  I find these patterns are best fished where there are
large caddis populations and riffles seem to be best.  I fish them on the
bottom on a slow dead drift.  I go toward the chartreuse color as spring
arrives then start through the tans and browns back toward fall.  I have
been using tungsten beads to slow my drift and get me straight to the bottom and
have found this to aid in the success of this pattern.  I prefer the black
beads.
